This web ad campaign is starting to get under my skin. everytime i try and watch any kind of video this add runs. Does anybody know about the reason. I mean if newschoolers has been running on banner adds for so long, whats the need for this pre video stuff? (or mabey its been going on for a while..)

word
a 2:00 video should not have a :12 ad in front of it.
NS can go out of buisiness for all i care.
I have so many better things to do, that i can't believe that i am even on this site, watching someone else ski.

i used axe in about 5th and 6th grade. then i realized how terrible it was. now that i see these commercials, i hate axe that much more. its sooooo freaking annoying, and i dont know how anyone could like it. and the hair commercials and basically based towards guidos....

it gets annoying when the top ad takes up half the screen when youre trying to switch forums and accidentally scroll over it.

Mogul skiing made easy
Learn how experts carve turns in moguls, powder, crud, and trees.

This is an ad on the sidebar, further questioning just who pays NS to show them.  Million dollar question - how to carve in moguls?

the axe ads are so much worse. i was trying to watch a 1:00 long video and the ad was :30

it also has nothing to do with skiing, which really grinds my gears

i wear the classic old spice body spray scent every day and girls always ask what type of cologne i'm wearing. it's great. the stuff's cheap and it's effective.

fuck that ad. i know ns has sold out to studio 411(i dont have a problem with it, it probably make the site better), but seriously can you guys not ever run that add again no matter how much they are paying you....   It bad enough that moto cross takes up half of the time slots during the x-games.

I dont see the ads as terrible because we need NS to make money so they can continue to progress as a site but after i sat through the axe ad and watched the edit i had been waiting for i had to re watch the same axe ad i had just watched when i tried to re watch the same edit.  i dont think you should have to watch the again if you already loaded the vid.

because in order for NS to be a working free site, there needs to be ads where people see things most. So therefor, when you watch a vid, you also watch an add, so that NS can get money from axe for instence. So inorder for NS to run, they need ads like this to get the money they need to have this website be free and working.

whats even worse about these fucking ads is that they take a while to load! It already sucks that I have to wait through the gay ass ad but waiting for the AD to load is just not worth it

I hated Axe since I first saw it in action, and this and the drop-down banner ad has only intensified my loathing. Especially the drop-down ad though.

The axe commercial gets sooo annoying. But the new nissan z one is dope, not only because its a dope car, but because its short too!

Bwahahahahahahhaha!!!! Thats so awesome!

Hilarious, thanks man way to be a good sport about it, that was classic!

You guys should be stoked on Axe. I know the ad is annoying, but Axe threw down for us. They're supporting the site that we all love, and keeping it free and awesome for you guys.

I know the ad is showing a little much, but we're still working on dialing in our video advertising program. We'll get it super soon and all will be much, much better.
